The development proposal invoves replacement of Terminals 1, 2 & 7 with conglomerated North and South terminals to help simplify and improve the traveler experience.

Consolidated areas will accommodate more visitors, larger aircraft, plus more accessible areas for disabled and elderly travelers. Travelers who commute using public transportation will have access to larger and more frequent AirTrain shuttles.
